http://www.rawstory.com/2016/04/armed-hate-group-backs-out-of-texas-mosque-protest-when-faced-with-gun-toting-worshipers/#.VwBbv3XrDOU.twitterAn anti-Muslim hate group planned an armed protest at an African-American mosque in Texas but it didnt go as planned.
The group, the Bureau of American Islamic Relations, or BAIR, has made it a habit in the past to show up at mosques with firearms and intimidate worshipers. In November, armed protesters stalked Muslims in Irving. In December, they again stalked Muslims at the Islamic Association of North Texas.
But on Saturday, the group that makes a show of carrying guns while they surround places of worship was met in-kind at a Nation of Islam mosque in South Dallas, the Dallas Morning News reports.
This is an armed defense maneuver, making sure that our communities are safe and secure from any insurgents coming in, Krystal Muhammad of the New Black Panther Party told Fox4 last week. Muhammad was armed with a large shotgun. We wont allow anybody to come in and try to intimidate our brothers and sisters.

(6,133 posts)I use to chat with some of these types, not that it was their chat rooms, and at first they seem nice family people, and before long they tell you there's going to be a race war. They say, believe me.
But in reality they want it, and everything they do is to create it. Fox News helps them
